FOREWORD 

We trust that any errors or omissions which may be found in 
this book will be overlooked, as due to the nature of the sub- 
ject it was particularly difficult to make a perfect and com- 
plete record. 

Had it been possible in November, 1917, to have foreseen 
the futures of all the 5th Company men and published these 
records at that time, this book would undoubtedly have 
been of far greater interest than it is at present. We hope, 
however, that even now it will be of lasting value as a re- 
minder of old friends and stirring times.
